Walking under the ladder is supposed to give you bad luck, so I never it \Vhenever 1come across a ladder, I ahvavs \valk around it - even if I have ro \Valk out into the road Con1e to think of it, that's probably worse than \.valking under the ladder, because I could get hit by a car, but there's no \vay that I \Vould ever \valk under the ladder J Sp eaker I don't know if any other countries have this superstition, but where I live, you have to be very careful \vhen you buy a ne\v pair of shoes Apparently, it's bad luck to put the shoes on your dining room table This goes back to something that people did in the past \vhen son1ebody died - in fact, it was the families of 1niners in the north of England who originally did this The family always bought new clothes to dress the dead person in, and this included buying new shoes So, if you leave your new shoes on the table, so1ne people think this could bring bad luck Spe aker In England and Ireland, so1ne people are very superstitious about going up or down the stairs If you're going down the stairs, it's bad luck to pass someone who is coming up the stairs and the san1e thing happens the other \vay round Someone once told me the reason for this A long time ago, people carried s\vords so you had to be very careful of the people around you If son1ebody passed you on the stairs you couldn't see them because they, were behind ,you That n1eant that they could turn round and kill you \Vith their S\VOrd \.Vithou t you realizing Speaker Son1e people say that if you open an umbrella in the house it \viii rain on you, i.e you'll have bad luck Personally, I would never open an umbrella inside n1y house To start \vith, it's pretty ilnpractical, because umbrellas are quite big Also, they're pretty dangerous, and it's quite easy ro knock something over and break it \Vith an umbrella I suppose that's \vhy un1brellas are associated \Vith bad luck, reall y, because things have gone wrong in the past S p e aker S Here in Germany, if someone has an exam or is going for a job interview, \.Ve \Vrap the fingers of our right hand around our thun1b and say ' I'm holding nly thumb for you' I have son1e Brazilian friends \vho, when they \vish people luck, make a similar sign, but they push their thumb between the first t\.VO fingers Maybe the t\vO are connected in son1e way I kno\.v rhat in England people cross their fingers and say 'Fingers crossed' when they wish people luck, \Vh ich is quite sin1ilar Bl)) R e ceptionis t Good afternoon Can I help you;> Guest Oh, hello Yes - I need to ask you about \Vi fi access in the hotel I've gor son1e \Vork to 'vhile l'n1 here, so I'm going to need an internet connection R eceptionist Well, there's a wifi hotspot in the lobby of the hotel and all of the roon1s have \vifi Guest Great And how nluch does it cost?
